Nurse or physician

Unlinked hyaluronic acid is placed in tiny, evenly spaced deposits through the dermis. It spreads, binds water, and the skin feels thicker and looks less crêpey.

Where it works

It is a filler for the skin itself, not for the face. That is why the dots sit in a grid instead of in the places that have lost shape.

What it cannot do

It does not lift, contour or add volume. The small bumps you see afterwards settle within two days.

A typical plan: 2 sessions, 4 weeks apart. Yours is set at the consultation.
